PARIS, J ULY 7.—Accounts from Augsburg state, that on the 29th, in the morning, the town of Pres burg offered to surrender.—Guette de Frankfort. The Americans at Paris met on the 4th of this mouth, to the number of 50, to celebrate the an niversary of the independence of the United States. The hall in -which they met was ornamented with emblems analagoul; to the festival. France and America were seen reposing together in the Temple of Pace, each bearing a cornucopia: at their feet was England. Another emblem represented the President of the United States and the Senate. • Be fore them walked an old soldier, carrying 'a stan -darcl, on which was inscribed, " Ist July, l 77G ; Liberty of Navigation for Neutrals, or War against Enfland."—The Ambassador of the United .States, General Armstrong, and the Legation, were prespnt at this festival. • LEIDFI'/, ‘ moment 9.--We have this mo at ent re aei‘'ed,"by certain channel, the following Intelli gence : " The K." ,f Westphalia entered the city' of _trig o. ...tphana preidn on the - Ist of this month . ; at nine in the morning.

The militia or Landwebr took the road to Dresden, and the Austrian General Xienmayer, who commands all the enemy's troops, marched in the direCtion of Chemnitz, and took up this morn ing a position at Frankenberg. He probably in tends to retreat to Bohemia by Sebastianbu . ,g, or march against Bayreuth.

On that day the most satisfaCtory intelligenee had been received at the Emperor's heaci;quarters, from the army of General Marmont, Duke of Ragusa. That corps, in advancing from LaybaCh, had been obstruCled, as General Giulay had advanced upon Gratz with the wreck of several corps which he had colleCted, had thrown some hundred men into the citadel, and burnt all the bridges over the Dram, probably with a view of getting into the Tyrol; but the Duke of Ragusa frustrated this plan ; he promptly re-established the bridges, passed the Drave, completely cut off the road to the Tyrol from General Giulay, beat him at all points, advanced to Gratz, which he reckoned upon entering the 25th, and obliged the enemy to retire into Hungary, to pass the Danube there, if that may be in his power.—(Toutratl de Frank fort.) BANKS OF THE DANUBE, JUNE 29.—As early as the 16th instant a detachMent of French horse ap peared before the bridge-head of Comoro, but re treated again, after having reconnoitred the poSition of the Austrian troops. The head-qtiarters of the Archduke John were, on the 17th instant, at•Co morn. Up to the 27th instant, no event of any im portance had been taken in the environs of Vienna, and the Danube still separates the two hostile armies. It is generally supposed that the Emperor Napoleon will not cross the Danube with the grand army till the Russians shall have arrived in Moravia, which will not be long. The military operations in that quarter are at present confined to attacks and can nonades from the islands in the Danube. On the 16th June, the Magistrates of Buda issued a Procla mation, dire&ing the inhabitants, in case that any of the enemy's troops should appear before the town, or enter the same, to keep themselves still and quiet. Since the battle of Raab the Archduke Reiner has also left Buda, with all the Members of Govern ment, and crossed the Danube, as well as the Arch duke John's army.—(btrecht Gazette, July 12.) LEIPZIG, JULY 3.—On the 29th of last month a cannonade was heard in the environs of Nossen, where the Austrians have taken post ; and intelli gence has this day been received, that an adion has taken place between parties of the Austrian and combined armies, between Nossen and Dreslen. ' AMSTERDAM, JULY 9.—The fort of Rammakes, in Zealand, has lately been occupied I-A troops be longing to the corps coinnvindvd by General Mon net. It is difficult to form an opinion on the reason which has occasioned that measure, unless it be as cribed to an arbitrary deed of the said General, which will certainly be punished by the Emperor Napoleon. Very fortunately the above at of vio lence has not been attended with any unpleasant consequences between the troops of the two nations. —(litrecht Gazette, 12th July.) , RAVENSBURG, JUNE 27.—Wargen yesterday still continued to he occupied by , a detachment of t5O Austrians. From Wargen, which is four hours march from Lindau to Bergenz,,3ooo Voraiburghers, insurgents, occupy the mountains. The Wurtem burghers corps of observation, the head-quarters of which still remain at Hofen, near Benhorn, and which is commanded by Gen. Penh!, keeps open the communication with the garrison of Lindau, and, covers•the frontiers of Wirtemburgh. KEMPTEN, JUNE 28.—Since the battle given to the Tyrolese Insurgents, who attempted, 1500 men strong, to take this place, on the 19th instant, they kept themselves quiet, but occupy the woods south of the town in a semi-circular position. On the 19th, they lost 200 men in killed, wounded, and taken. Had the combined French and Bavarian corps been 1200 strong instead of 500, they would all have been annihilated. • LErrsic, JUNE 25.—The Austrians evacuated our city yesterday evening, and took the road .to Guienna. To-day about noon we saw the West- . phalian troops arrive, under the command of Gen. Albignac, and the corps commanded by Colonel Thielmann. In- consequence of the orders of his Majesty the King of Saxony, a movable column, Commanded by Major General Dyhernn, will .pass under the orders of col. Thielmann. M. De Dyhernn Will have another destination. Extra} of a Private Letter from Rotterdam, dated Ju ly 12. " We have no very particular intelligence . here ; the public attention is direaed to observe the part which Russia really means to take. Some think that she is not really sincere in her co-operation with* France, and will avail herself of the first op. portunity to betray her; and others, that the threats of England to bombard her ports, and even St. Pe tersburgh, wi'l have a good effea. " h is reported here, that the King of Spain , JOSEPH 13UONAPARTE has put himself at the head of the army, in °isle the more effeElually to quell insurgents. Some, however, think, that it is for the purpose of retiring from the country," BENL/N, Jumii2 3.---Since the taking of Vienna by the French, Prague has become the capital of the- It iF, from this city that all the Procla mations are issued ; the Gazette of the 16th inst. contained an article, dated from the bead-quarters.--- It appears from it that the whole day of the 14th of June, was passed in fear of one general attacl; from the grand French army. The anniversary Of the battle of ;Marengo induced a belief that the French would celebrate that day by some entrprise. The Gazette of Prague, on the 12th, nave another Bulletin of the Austrian Army, dated Wolkers.dorf. It is there said that it was against the Archduke JOHN that the French dire4ed their efforts to ..cle larate the battle of Narengo. But it is to be re marked, that this Prince, to whom the Bulletin before the last had assigned 6.0,000 men, had only .?6,000, as soon as it was known thaf he Was defeated. "Be sides," says the account,,,f' out of this number there was only, 20,090 regular troops, the other sixteen thousand belonged to the i Hungarian Insurrection. who could not stand when they were attacked by 50,000 French." His right wing having given way, the Archduke JOHS found it convenient, for the execution of his plan, to fall back upon Cornorn. This slight check has prodUced no essen tial change in the positions of the Austrian army. It lost in this battle 1500 men killed-and wounded. Such are, verbatim, the last lines of the Bulletin. It was followed by an invitation to thelnhabitants of Bohemia .to. give up all the gunpovider they might have in their posSession, the army being in the greatest want of it.—(llloniteur, July 7.) VIENNA, JUNE 27.---The day before yesterday the Emperor reviewed the army in the beautiful plain between Vienna and the Palace of Schoen . brunn, Austrians - .

LONDON, TUESDAY, stria - 18, liog. We this morning received Portuguese Papers to the 30th ult. the contents of which will be found is a subsequent column. General VICTOR, it appears, has began his retreat, and it seems to be the ge neral opinion that the French will endeavour to concentrate all their forces behind the Ebro. Sir ARTHUR WELLESLEY is advancing towards Madrid, at the head of an army of 30,000 wen, in co-operas tion with General CUESTA, who is at the head of 26,000 Infantry, and 6,000 Cavalry. The unfortunate FERDINAND is said still to be at Valencey, with his Brother, Don CARLOS, where they are kept in a state of most rigid confinement, except that they are allowed to take the air in a small park ; all their attendants, even their Physi cian, has been separated from them. The Expedition will, we trust, sail to-morrow or Thursday, as all the troops, artillery, and stores, are embarked, and we hope, that in a very few days we shall have the pleasure of communicating to our Readers, some gratifying intelligence respeling its success. With respea to its destination, it remains still a matter of conjeeture, but we have strong rea son to believe, that its first operations, will not be at a.very great distance, from our own shores. The lateness of the hour at which we received the Foreign Papers, yesterday, prevented us from mak ing any 'observation upon their contents, which ap pear to us ratheof an important nature. The 23d Bulletin does not, indeed, contain any very ititereit iog military information, but the allusion - which it makes to peace is certainly calculated to excite con siderable apprehensions. We trust that our-appre hensions upon this subjeet are ill founded, and that theßulletin is rather to be considered as conveying the wishes of BUONAPARTE, than as giving an accurate account of that which has passed.We c,an scarcely con ceive an event which would be more calamitous to Europe, than a peace between Austria and France, at the present moment; At no period since his usurpation has EVONAPARTE been placed in a situa tion of such extreme danger as he is at present; at no period has a more favourable opportunity present ed itself /of re-establishing the independence of Europe. BUONAPARTE must be conscious of the precipice . on which he stands, and ofcourse he will employ every artifice which his mind can suggest, to extricate himself from his dangerous position. A Peace would effeaually answer his purpose, and, though it tnifhtbe concluded upon apparently favor- able terms to Austria, it would ultitnately be mit:. pus to that Power. Under these circumstances, we cannot but feel considerable alarm, when we hear BIJONAPARTE, in his Bulletins, talking of Peace ; but ,a,5, the Emperor of Austria, after the disasters which marked the commencement of the Campaign, had the firmness to persevere in the contest, so we trust he will now have the good sense to reje& any in sidious offer of Negotiation which BUONAPARTE may make. BUONAPARTE has repeated in this 'Bulletin his cool, deliberate determination to murder the Marquis Ds CIIASTELLAR, if.ever that gallant Officer should fall into his hands. Some more I)utcl Papers arrived this morning, but they are not of a more recent date than those which had previously reached us. A Letter from Aotterdam, of the .12th inst. mentions the progress of the Russians, but at the same time it. expresses a doubt whether they will really co-operate with the French. JOSEPH EVONAPARTE has put himself at the head of his Troops, for the purpose, it is said, of quelling the Insurgents;' but he probably thinks.. himself safer with his Troops than in Madri:i. Several Dutch letters received yesterday,,state that the expeaation of an attack from our Expedition had created-great alarm in Holland. The ships of war in the Scheldt have , been moved sander the guns of Fort Lillo ; ,and other strong batteries are raising for their protection. The same letters repolt that the , British-troops from Sicily had landed on the Neapo litan coast, and having been joined by a great number of the natives, were advancing to attack MuRAT. The Earl of ,C;TATHAN, having received his final iristrudions, set out -last night for Ramsgate to take . the chief command of the Expedition. Sir Evils COOTE is second in command ; and the sevtral grand Divisions are to be under the orders of those gallant Officers, Lieutenant Generals Sir J.

The 13al Boatmen, much to their honour, have, t seems, voluntarily offered their services, with their large boats, to put the troops On board, with Out ex pence to Government.
